  1. To save their storied wooden canoes, an Ely YMCA camp sunk them in a lake

    Nearly all of Camp Widjiwagan’s legendary fleet of wood canvas canoes is safe, with 19 of them cached underwater in an ancient practice.

  6. Good Morning #Canada
    We are entering our 3rd week in the new house and not yet taking advantage of the access to water - just a 5 minute walk to a community beach and dock on Cook's Bay on Lake Simcoe. But I'm already researching #Canoes and #Kayaks and deciding how serious I should be about adding that activity to my retirement schedule. Kayaks and Canoes are Canada’s gift to the personal watercraft community, and according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), 12.4 million Canadians enjoy boating each year. After a flat period during the pandemic, that number is on the rise, and recreational boating accounts for over $10 billion in annual revenues, with approximately 75,000 Canadians employed in the recreational boating industry. Recent tech in inflatables and folding boats is addressing portability and storage and expanding the market. Here is a great resource article on choosing between a Canoe or Kayak.

  23. Country Knowledge through Space, Time and Mobility
    Mindful journey or instrumental reason?

    At any Australian coast one usually hears the drone of speeding tinnies or even jet ski. Run by fossil fuel they are loud, fast and polluting. Fishermen, like car drivers operate in a 'getting things done’ modus.

    But the acceleration of motorised (maritime) mobility is not conductive to the encounter between people and Country.

    Indigenous Australians are renewing and maintaining the slow quiet movement of canoes to allow a different people-place relation.

    “Moving faster can unsettle the possibilities for interaction that involves sitting near, listening, observing and engaging…The point is that the way we move is intimately connected to the way we know.”

  27. “I got to learn more about #fishing, gathering #food and how to use the #canoes properly. I also learned about my #culture and my background.”

    Another Wabun Youth Gathering is in the books. The 17th annual event was held in Beaverhouse #FirstNation.

  28. "Those finds cast #LaMarmotta as a thriving farming community. Gibaja & colleagues' new analysis of the 5 #canoes shows how that trade could have been made possible with the townspeople's sophisticated ship-building skills.
    The canoes were built from hollowed-out trees, which grew between 5700 & 5100 BCE. Measuring an estimated 11 meters…larger than needed to cross Lake Bracciano."
